Our one-bedroom garden flat is in a perfect location for a quiet night's sleep being just a few minutes from Preston Park and London road shops, pubs, restaurants and nightlife.

The small garden and patio is fairly secluded and south east facing.

Located 1.6 miles from the beach (Brighton Pier) and 1 mile from the North Lanes which leads into the main city centre.

The space
Situated on the ground floor of a Victorian building, with easy access to a secure front door via the main communal hallway.
The high ceilings give the apartment a bright and airy feel.
The open-plan lounge and kitchen benefit from a full length window and double french doors, opening out to south east facing decking and lawn area. The back garden is a great sun trap with quite good privacy. There's bistro chairs and a table along with a reclining chair perfect for outside eating and relaxing.
Inside there's a comfortable sofa in the lounge.
The bathroom is modern and has a large overhead shower head and a hand shower.
Towels, soap and shower gel are provided.
The bedroom faces the front of the building and has large bay windows with venetian blinds.
We ask that you do not raise the blinds as guests have managed to get them stuck so instead tilt the blinds only.

An ironing board, iron and hairdryer are also provided.
